New York Jets

Perfect draft pair: Ohio State CB Marshon Lattimore (Round 1, pick 6); Eastern Washington WR Cooper Kupp (Round 2, pick 39)

Jeremiah on Lattimore: I think Lattimore is the most talented cornerback in this draft. He has elite speed and outstanding ball skills. He's very smooth and athletic. He'd be a great fit for the Jets.

Brooks on Kupp: I believe Kupp could be the heir apparent to Eric Decker in the Jets' offense. He's an oustanding route runner and does a great job of making plays over the middle of the field. He takes his game up a notch when he plays against tough competition.
